Just an update on the issue I had with my none starter.. After receiving the advice that I should change the injector seals I immediately set about purchasing and fitting a complete set. I was careful to follow a very useful guide via YouTube Upon completion of the task I had still...

Video of her choking.. I started her again this morning, all appeared fine. Left running for approx ten min then, she stated to splutter again before eventually stalling... Have measured the voltage whilst running it’s over 14.3vdc and round 12.3vdc in the battery down to 11.6vdc during crank.

Soooo, after I finished playing around with my ECU last night, I refitted and thought I’d turn her over one last time.... started first time ‍:confused: Other than having the battery on a good charge all day (have tried jumping it off 2 different sources already) I have done nothing extra than...

Thanks for the replies :) Current Fault on my ECU and viewed via my Lynx Diagnostic tool is Road Speed Missing. I don't have anything else popping up whilst cranking the engine, should I?? Cleared my existing fault memory when she first broke down as I had induced a number of faults through my...

Hi All, Currently I am trying to troubleshoot a none starting TD5 Disco (turns over happily with an initial ‘blip’ after a long prime) and I believe it may be a potential fuelling issue! Should I be seeing pressure at this connection on the attached diagram?? Basically I was happily driving...

A couple of months ago my wife sent me this video of my Disco having a Disco... I have been unable look at this problem due to working away but, I am due home soon and want to try and get to the bottom of this. From what info I have had already, It would appear to be a Starter Motor issue...

Hi Toseland, Thank you for your reply. I have been under this morning to check those nuts but, they are fine. I have, with the help of a mirror, now identified that it is defiantly "bubbling" out from between where the two blocks meet in the attached photo! I have no idea how to approach...

Hi Guys, As we are all to aware, Landover's do like to leave an oily patch or two around and my wife would surely testify to the utter incontinence of my particular Disco 2 but, as of late my periodical splodge here and there has turned into a more constant drip... After getting under the car...

Gents, Just to close this thread up. I managed to grab a Idler pulley from a place near me and fitted it earlier also, I grabbed a new oil filter as the old one was stuck solid and had to get a bit rough to shift it... Replaced the water pump with a new one as I was at that stage when I...

Might have something to do with it ffs... Least I’ve found the problem now! Thanks for your reply’s chaps!

Cheers for the reply’s chaps! Have just removed the old water pump and other than a little weepage from the drain home it doesn’t appear to be seized to me! I would say a misdiagnosis is correct and it problay was the idler pulley that’s doused to belt to lock up... Oh well, least I’ve...

Gents, I had to get towed home the other week as, according to the mechanic, my water pump had seized locking up my sepentine belt and therefore stopping the engine turning over. My Questions is; I am currently half way through the pump change and was looking at the pulleys closer the top...

Did mine earlier this year, was really mucky, and all I had to do was to remove the existing pipework and blank off with the two supplied plates and the vacuum hose. Hadn't heard that you had to remove from the ECU and haven't encountered problems as of yet but, if I go into my fault register...

When I first bought the motor there was a few raps of purple strapping around the bottom of the Hippy Nudger ;) I have since removed said strapping but, there was an amount of scoring left behind so I have put some handle bar tape I had in the shed in its place! There is also some rust/damage on...

:rolleyes: roger.. Still new shoes :p

"Drum Brakes" o_O If this was 1975 and this was Austin Elegro id be inclined to agree with you ;) Shoes will suffice :p

As promised, here are a few photos of the ole girl in her new shoes and 30mm spacers! I'm really happy with them :D 245/75 R16s all round! Shiny new tyres with drilled/grooved discs :cool: 30mm wider stance. Can really tell the difference in on road handling! Giving the old 235 grabbers a...

Hi guys! Sorry for being AWOL recently, work ect... Anyway, I have carried a few minor maintenance tasks on the Disco since my last update and compiled them below for your pleasure ;) I also have a recurring issue which I have found to be caused by the connection (or lack there of) from the...

Amazing effort so far buddy, watching with avid interest :)

Haha, it's not pink it's purple I havent found anything I want to replace it with yet, so it's staying for now! I'm going to take the connection off the ecu and have a butchers, hopefully no Oil but, will get it changed if there is
